Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She is very fun and engaging and personally gets to know and love each student. She has many of her own creative activities to keep them engaged which I would've loved to do as a kid. There are some like Goldrush Day, taking them on virtual field trips, and the mini economy where students bring and buy little toys or crafts with the Bahr Bucks they earn. She loves to tell me about her students and activities and is very passionate and excited about everyone.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She does her job because she loves it. She loves teaching and getting to know the kids and having a little family in the classroom.
